Actually, Henry's card is 4 MB and if ever it's an ATA card (in which case his
Newton should behave differently, I think), there is no need to buy ATA Support
unless he wants to support my development work. Indeed, one can freely use 4 MB
cards with the completely not annoying demo version (it will never ask you to
register or whatever). Bigger cards are limited to 4 MB for read/write, they
can only be read beyond 4 MB. It's something I should stress, I think, one can
get 4 MB of cheap storage by buying some ATA card and using it with ATA Support
Demo.
